CR Oracle ODBC Driver

764247Apr 1 2010 — edited May 26 2010
I recently had to reinstall my operating system (Windows XP Pro 32 bit) and applications, which included Crystal Reports. CR was originally setup to access our companies database tables. I also had and ODBC connection setup for CR.

I'm having trouble finding the right ODBC software to reinstall so that the CR Oracle ODBC Driver 5.0 shows up in the Administrative Tools/Data Sources (ODBC)/ Drivers. The only ODBC driver that shows up is the Microsoft ODBC Driver for Oracle, which won't connect.

Once I have the CR ODBC Driver, then I just need to configure it in the System DSN, and copy the sqlnet.ora and tsnnames.ora files into C:\oracle\ora92\network\ADMIN, which is where it is located on another computer that can connect.

Does anybody know which Oracle software would work for the CR driver issue? Is Oracle supposed to be installed prior to CR so the driver shows up?

It's been several years since this was originallly setup, and not quite sure how to get the CR driver.

Please help! Thanks for your assistance.
